V. S. Land Office
A circular addressed to regis
ters and receivers of United
States land offices containing in

general land office. It reads:
Sirs: Tbe following instruc
tions are issued for your guid
ance in the allowance of second
homestead and desert land en
tries under the act of congress
approved February 3, 1911 (Pub
lic, No. 340). a copy of which is
hereto attached.
This act allows a second home
stead or desert-land entry, as the
case may be. to any person oth
erwise qualified, who, prior to
February 3, 1911, has made en
try under the homestead or desert-land
laws, but who subse
quently to such entry, from any
cause, shall have lost, forfeited
or abandoned the same, but the
provisions of the act do not ap
ply to any person whose former
entry was cancelled for fraud or
who relinquished his former en
try for a valuable consideration
in excess of the filing fees paid
by him on his original entry.
This act allows a second entry of
either kind if the former entry
was made prior to February 3,
1911, although it may have been
lost, forfeited or abandoned sub
sequent to that date.
A person applying to make
second homestead or desert-land
entry under this act must file in
the local land office an applica
tion to enter a specific tract of
public lands, subject to entry
under tbe laws in question, ac
companied by his affidavit before
an officer authorized to adminis
ter oaths under public-ladd laws,
sta'.ing the description of the
former entry by section, town
ship and ranjre numbers (or the
number of the entry and land
office where made) date of entry;
when he lost, forfeited or aban
doned the same; that it was cot
canceled for fraud; and the
amount, if anything, received
for abandoning or relinquishing
his former entry. This affidavit
must be corroborated by the affi
davit of one or more persons
having knowledge of the facts
relative to the abandonment of
the claim or the relinquishment
of the former entry and the con
sideration received therefor,
which corroborating affidavit
may be executed before an offi
cer authorized to administer
oaths and having an official seal.
If an application is presented
which has not been executed be
fore a proper officer, or which is
otherwise formally defective,
you will suspend or reject it,
subject to the usual right of ap
peal. If the application is form
ally correct and the party makes
a showing entitling him to the
benefits of this act, you will
allow the application, indorsing
thereon, and on the notice of al
lowance, the fact that the same
Is allowed under the act of Feb
ruary 3.
If the application for second
homestead or desert-land entry
is formally correct, but the ap
plicant does not make a showing
entitling him to the benefits of
act of February 3, 1911, you will
not reject the application, but
will forward it to this office,
with appropriate recommenda
tion, as rpquirpfl by the circular
of March 29. 1910.
Very respectfully.

I Commissioner.

Shelter For Hogs.
A very important matter in success
ful swine growing is good shelter, for,
while other animals on the form may
apparently be content to remain out
in the cold and rain, the hog invari
ably selects a nice, warm, dry place.
So for tbe good of this animal do not
go contrary to his nature and compel
him to expose himself to the elements,
but provide for him a comfortable,
warm and dry bed.
Gantlenais With 8toek Pays.
It is a great pleasure to have none
but gentle stock on a place. A cross
sow or cow is a nuisance besides be
ing dangerous at times. If started
right and handled carefully animals
are easily taught to be gentle.
